It helps to prevent a hangup with some FTP servers in case idle session
timeout has exceeded. But it may be useful also for other protocols
that send any quit message on disconnect. Currently used by FTP, POP3,
IMAP and SMTP.
tftpd-hpa has a bug where it will send an incorrect ack when the block
counter wraps and tftp options have been sent. Work around that by
accepting an ack for 65535 when we're expecting one for 0.
Older unixes want an 'int' instead of 'size_t' as the 3rd
argumment so before this change it would cause warnings such as:
There is an implicit conversion from "unsigned long" to "int";
rounding, sign extension, or loss of accuracy may result.
Eric Mertens posted bug #3003705: when we made TFTP use the
correct timeout option when sent to the server (fixed May 18th
2010) it became obvious that libcurl used invalid timeout values
(300 by default while the RFC allows nothing above 255). While of
course it is obvious that as TFTP has worked thus far without
being able to set timeout at all, just removing the setting
wouldn't make any difference in behavior. I decided to still keep
it (but fix the problem) as it now actually allows for easier
(future) customization of the timeout.

In a normal expression, doing [unsigned short] + 1 will not wrap
at 16 bits so the comparisons and outputs were done wrong. I
added a macro do make sure it gets done right.
Douglas Kilpatrick filed bug report #3004787 about it:

Eric Mertens posted bug report #3003005 pointing out that the
libcurl TFTP code was not sending the timeout option properly to
the server, and suggested a fix.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=3003005)
Error codes were not properly returned to the main curl code (and on to apps
using libcurl).
tftp was crapping out when tsize == 0 on upload, but I see no reason to fail
to upload just because the remote file is zero-length. Ignore tsize option on
upload.
rework patch that now integrates TFTP properly into libcurl so that it can
be used non-blocking with the multi interface and more. BLKSIZE also works.
The --tftp-blksize option was added to allow setting the TFTP BLKSIZE from
the command line.
sending of the TSIZE option. I don't like fixing bugs just hours before
a release, but since it was broken and the patch fixes this for him I decided
to get it in anyway.
I've now made TFTP "connections" not being kept for re-use within libcurl.
TFTP is UDP-based so the benefit was really low (if even existing) to begin
with so instead of tracking down to fix this problem we instead removed the
re-use. I also enabled test case 1099 that I wrote a few days ago to verify
that this change fixes the reported problem.
clarity. This does fix one problem that causes ;type=i FTP URLs
to fail in the Turkish locale when CURLOPT_PROXY_TRANSFER_MODE is
used (test case 561)
Added tests 561 and 1092 through 1094 to test various combinations
of ;type= and ;mode= URLs that could potentially fail in the Turkish
locale.
now has an improved ability to do right when the multi interface (both
"regular" and multi_socket) is used for SCP and SFTP transfers. This should
result in (much) less busy-loop situations and thus less CPU usage with no
speed loss.
